One week later and I still have a craving for...

[Lisa63]

... the wonderful oatmeal served at breakfast. I had a small bowl every day, whether it was in the Lido or dining room (or both!).

 

Are there any foods you still miss after returning home from a cruise? Anything from the exotic to the ordinary...

[Vicar]

I miss the breakfast buffets.

 

normally I only have time for a bagel and coffee, so i love sitting down and taking my time enjoying eggs and bacon and sausage and hash browns and all that good stuff :)

[FlorenceItaly]

This isn't a food, but I am STILL looking for those beautiful Alaskan mountains, and glaciers.....none here in Oklahoma, LOL. It was fabulous being continually surrounded by the Alaskan beauty.

Oddly enough, when I am on board, I have this craving for cheddar cheese which is always present in the lido. Been awhile since I have cruised, so too long to remember post-cruise cravings.....wait a minute......ah yes the daily fresh pastries!

[jhannah]

Salmon. I have salmon every morning at breakfast while on board ship. Doesn't matter what else I eat ... I must have some slices of salmon with a few capers. Man, I miss that right now! :)

[ESLO]

Yes, I really miss on the Rotterdam

 

The Deli Counter, really great choices of sandwiches especially the Sandwiche of the Day.

 

The Stir-Fry Counter, many of the dishes were interesting and some were abit spicy and stay away from those.

 

The hors d’oeuvres served in the Ocean Bar at cocktail time before dinner.

 

Smoked Salmon, all you want thru out the entire cruise!!!!!!!!!

 

Some of my favorite things, to many to mention...........

Salad Bar....everything all cleaned and cut up for me!!! Great variety.

 

Someone else doing the meal planning, grocery shopping, cooking, serving, clearing, washing and putting away. Ahhh....I need (another) cruise.

I miss the wonderful raisin buns at breakfast. We have them in England and eat them toasted in the afternoon with tea. HAL ships are the only place where I can get them that taste just like "home" I always have my fill of them while onboard....jean :cool:

Ditto , me too Jim and at almost every meal:p

 

I also miss the Swiss Museli, they do serve a Museli a the Bellagio Buffet they call it Bircher Museli it is very similar to HAL's but HAL has the better one. Other wise I have never seen any where else.

Jean, I had forgotten about the raisin buns. They are soooo good. I also miss the bread pudding and the wonderful soups.

 

Only 99 days to go until be board the Westerdam on 12/12/04!!

The after-dinner chocolates in the Pinnacle - Yum!!!

 

And the stewed prunes on my breakfast tray - i must be gettig old if I'm looking forward to stewed prunes!!!

[RevNeal]

Omelets for breakfast ... made while I watch. YUM. And HAL's fantastic hash browns. :) I adore breakfast at sea. Fresh squeezed OJ, coffee, omelet, hash browns, fruit ... I'm almost not interested in lunch even as late as 1 am.

 

Almost ...

i know what you mean , there have been times on a cruise when I am so full that I can only eat one entree at dinner :)

[skybuffalo]

Being from the flatlands, like ExaltHim, I miss having my breakfast coffee looking at the snowcapped mountains of Alaska. We may be in the minority in actually loving the cruise ship coffee. It is one item that we continually talk about. It might have been great coffee, but then again it just might have been the environment in which it was served.

That too funny. I am an oatmeal lover, but not the instant kind. Last month I got a nice bowl added some fresh fruit and took one spoonful and it was the worst I had ever eaten. Worse than wallpaper paste.

 

I love eating breakfast and lunch in the dining room. It's always so nice and relaxing. I hate the crowds in the Lido especially after you get your tray and can't find a table - that's so annoying. :(

[kelelmel]

Chilled soup, yummy!
